Reviews

  • ASUS P565

    ASUS push handheld processing forward with the P565. When it's released it will be the first WM6.1 smartphone to have an 800 MHz chip.

  • HTC Touch Viva

    The Touch Viva is the baby brother in HTC's latest Touch Series announcements, which features a pared down version of TouchFlo 3D matched with a simplified spec sheet. HSDPA and GPS are notably absent.

  • HP iPAQ 612c Business Navigator

    HP's latest iPAQ, the 612c Business Navigator, is a solid offering with lots of features and good battery life. It's a bland-looking and giant handset, but good performance and crisp touchscreen somewhat make up for the poor keypad.

  • HTC P3470

    Even with GPS and its expected lower price-tag the P3470 will struggle without Wi-Fi or 3G data speeds.

  • HTC Touch Cruise

    While the touchscreen PDA experience won't be for everyone, the Touch Cruise stands out as our favourite of the recent HTC releases.

  • HTC P3600i

    Decent performance, GPS and good connectivity are a plus for a handset with yesterday's heavy-set PDA aesthetics.

  • ASUS M530w

    The ASUS M530w is a 3G, Windows Mobile PDA-phone with a price tag that'll have CIOs everywhere rejoicing.

  • HP iPAQ 112 Classic

    There aren't many choices for dedicated, low-cost PDAs, so it's good to know that the 112 Classic pretty much gets all the basics right at an affordable price.
